Where can i find instructions about creating and programming the Pro Mini? Without a working PME, i can not start even...
Here is the sketch I use with ESPeasy
https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasySlaves/tree/master/MiniProExtender
I has not been updated since long time but it works fine with esp8266 using ESPeasy software with above plugin included.
I use a custom sketch to do some extra task on Pro Mini as below.

As you can see I am using Pro Mini for Mains current measurement and AC dimmer control which are impossible using only RPI or ESP8266. That is the importance of including Pro Mini. Only requirement is communication going between RPI and Pro Mini via I2C bus.
Thanks
I found this on ebay, according to its description it is an AT Mega328 3.3V compatible with Pro Mini, i can order this if it will be sufficient to test: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mini-ATMEAG328-3-3V-8Mhz-Replace-ATmega128-for-Arduino-Pro-Mini-Compatible/173360751835 Otherwise I2C is not a big deal, but the ESPEasy plugin that handles the Pro Mini looks like a little complicated to me, it will not be easy to port it. Sending commands to the Pro Mini may be implemented, but for the reverse way (from ProMini to RPIEasy) currently i have no clue how to store/display data...
I followed user Costo's post on ESPeasy forum to understand how to read values from Pro Mini into ESPeasy. Basically he set up devices in ESPeasy on devices tab to read value from Pro Mini.Link is below
https://www.letscontrolit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=627&p=6385&hilit=pme#p6385
So basically we can use Dummy devices to hold values and create one (or more) ProMini devices, in which to be given the destination task and value number(s) (max 10 row per dev?) with type (analog/digital)? I've done something similar (value rerouting) with battery value watching, which can be setted in Advanced settings. (i am using an ADS1015 for this goal now)
The "compatible" device i mentioned in the previous post is right?
Yes device you chose should work fine. For that matter any arduino device should work fine with shift register for 5V device or directly without shift register for 3.3V device. Your device is 3.3V so it should be fine by connecting directly 4 wires (3.3V, GND, SCL & SDA).To store value to dummy device you can use rules if it is implemented in your code.
You will also need FTDI adapter to upload the sketch to Pro Mini like below
Arduino Uno has this usb to serial chip built in but Pro mini does not.
I live in USA and if you need Pro Mini , FTDI adapter and some extra sensors I have I can send them to you. Please let me know.
Thanks
Thanks, but I already have a CP2102 (for flashing Sonoff devices) i think it will work for uploading, and ordered a ProMini for testing. Itt will arrive in time.. If you want to send some other sensors which is currenty not supported, itt will be nice.. but i am living in Hungary, Europe. :)
I was reading and tried to interpret the PME code. But i found a possible issue: It's default address 0x7f is outside of the valid I2C range. (0x08-0x77) https://www.totalphase.com/support/articles/200349176-7-bit-8-bit-and-10-bit-I2C-Slave-Addressing I doubt that RPI smbus module will handle it.
Is it not possible to define different address within the range (0x008-0x77) in PME plugin and match same newly defined address in pro mini extender code on arduino ? While searching web I found following links
https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=155389 https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=170958 https://oscarliang.com/raspberry-pi-arduino-connected-i2c/ (using 0x04 address) https://www.bluetin.io/interfacing/i2c-connect-raspberry-pi-arduino/ (using 0x08 address)
Yes, it is absolutely possible, but every PME needs to be reflashed with the recompiled sketch. :) I prefer 0x3F for the new address as this is the valid counterpart for 0x7f in 7bit.
Thank you for start on PME plugin. Can't wait to test once it is implemented.
Experimental version added at https://github.com/enesbcs/rpieasy/commit/b0ca9497a4b213ce7ee0de1cea7d033fd4d35039
I started testing this plugin and following is my feedback -
I tested both standard address 0x3f & non standard address 0x7f and both seems to communicate with pro mini so that was very good start.
I then attached joystick to analog pin 6 & 7 & switch part of joystick to digital pin 9 of pro mini and set up 3 different devices on device page to read value from each of 3 pins it send values but they are all same value and not different value.It should be different value for each of 3 pins. following is log -

If I move joystick sideways on both ends it seems there is no effect and values in log remain same as if joystick is middle position.
For output side if at least 1 device is enabled (for reading pin value from pro mini ) then both extpwm & extgpio works fine and turn pin high or low when I issue extpwm or extgpio command from advanced tab of rpieasy. But in original espeasy there was no need to set up pme plugin on device page in order to enable extgpio and extpwm command. Output side worked automatically without setting up anything on device page for pme plugin.
It is very good start and I appreciate your efforts.
Thanks
On further testing I realised that I was using 1 second interval on device page for all 3 pins so i changed interval to 2 seconds on 2 analog pins ( analog 6 & analog 7 ) and then it works reliably as it should. For digital pin 9 on pro mini no matter what interval I set on device page it shows value of 255 but it should be 1 or 0. sorry for confusion. Is it possible to change this behavior so that when switch is pressed or released on pin 9 it send data instantly to rpi instead of waiting for 60 seconds ?
Thanks for testing. In RPIEasy, it will sure commands will remain at their specific plugins, so you have activate "Switch" plugin to use gpio and MCP plugin to use extgpio.. for the same reason you have to activate USBRelay plugin to use usbrelay command, and PyGame Sound Player for playaudio command, etc, etc.. The reason is simple: RPIEasy can be run on machines, that do not have GPIO support, for example i running it at my PC also with Ubuntu. And i think every plugin has it's specific task, for good reason.
I am not familiar with the Arduino side of the ProMini, pin number 9 is just forwarded as it written in the text box to the ProMini. As i see the promini code is not capable of sending any data without receiving a read command, so i do not know, how to achieve instantous feedbacks from gpio changes. Is that function works on ESPEasy plugin? Maybe i can send several read commands per second, for ex 10 times per second. Or a new function has to be coded to the promini, that registers attachInterrupt() handler with the selected port and sends data accordingly.
Thank you for your clarification on switch plugin. I will have to test more to see if there can be something done on pro mini code.
@happytm: Could you try the new plugin? https://github.com/enesbcs/rpieasy/commit/7373154e620b68eca673402db3e90e57183bf396 Please delete PME devices, than recreate, and set Interval to 0. In this mode plugin asks the selected pin status ten times per second, and if state is changed, than event is fired. Warning: In this mode, i measured approximately +4% CPU usage/pin! So only use, if it is crucial. I tested 1 second interval with two pin and i do not found any problem, and cpu usage is minimal in this mode. (yet) With analog values it will be very noisy, for digital inputs, it could be handy.
I tried new plugin -
I guess that analog readings takes more time at the ProMini side, and i have to set delay back to 0.01s. (if data not arrived or arrived a lot of zeros, than it is not a changing and with Interval 0 only the changes logged) On the other hand, digital reads are almost instantous so i left it at 0.001s. I doubt that analog reading is possible with this device at a faster speed. Is it faster with ESP8266? Updated on github.
With esp8266 there are problems with RAM & load so it seems faster some times and it is very slow on other times.Compared to that I feel Rpieasy is way faster.There is too much going on there in the code frequently so reliability is not the best. That is the reason I want to move my projects on Rpieasy platform.Plus I can use RPI for lot of other things like audio, video etc. Analog on promini is something I do not use except to read current sensor ACS712 but I do not need very fast data update for that.I was using joystick to just test the plugin.
I see. Could you test the latest update? I hope it fixes analog result mixing.
RPIEasy is still a beta version, and you have to consider the SD card wear leveling problem, when migrating projects to it. But it is really useful if you want some other things like online radio, usb dvb tv, etc. For analog measuring i am using 4 channel ADS1015.
It did not change duplicate values problem. I tried sending data from pro mini in different ways but no success.I created separate integers in pro mini for each pin and sent 7 integers to rpieasy but somehow with every 2 second interval (which I set in plugin ) value becomes same even though when I print those integers values in serial monitor on pro mini it shows separate values for each analog pin correctly.
Seems really odd, tried to use a semaphore to not mix results. RPIEasy uses threading by design to run plugin_read commands to speed things up, so it can happen that an analogread command interrupts an other one's response. (ESPEasy is single threaded so it is not a problem there) https://github.com/enesbcs/rpieasy/commit/dce3e3c70f0edec163c1f3f2901072ad0d06e3f7 If latest commit not helps, than i have to extend the arduino sketch to include pin number in the response packet, this is the only way we can sure that results do not mix anymore.
Whatever you did with this commit it seems duplicate values from pro mini no longer happening. I used joystick to test (using 2 seconds interval in plugin for both pins) and it brings separate values from both pins based on real activity of joystick. Thank you.
you are welcome. in theory 1 seconds interval might work also. if this operation is adequate, can this issue be closed?
Spoke too soon. it seems like it behaves like before after few minutes.But if I reset pro mini it works properly for few minutes again and same pattern again. May be I2C looses connection and mess up everything.Regarding 1 second interval I tried 1 second interval on both pins but only 1 pin result shows up in log and that too is frozen so it does not respond to joystick anymore and second pin result disappears. strange behavior on 1 second interval. the log is below with comments:

I found this hint: "if the Master runs too fast and sends another Wire.beginTransmission() before the last read is complete, this can lead to communications bind up as the prior event onReceive() did not complete its work and possibly corrupting the current transmission in progress." I have to rethink I2C usage in RPIEasy. Other plugins are not so affected , but with multiple PME device started with several thread paralell needs a more exact timing and maybe some global I2C handler. Work in progress.
Please try commit https://github.com/enesbcs/rpieasy/commit/36f9a8724fe0079fa46931a4b6b8726b737be783
I2C queueing implemented to avoid value mixing and i2c grabbing by one plugin. Runned for several minutes without errors, but needs further testing. If ProMini suddenly stops responding, than try to modify line 79 in rpiwire.py from:
time.sleep(0.02)
to
time.sleep(0.08)
than remove power from it and reconnect. May be a timing issue, but can also be a buffer overflow error at the Arduino sketch of the ProMini. (I've got a package full of 0xFF bytes from the ProMini right before the same values began to arrive)
I tested it and it is working better than before.It lasted 1 hour this time before automatic reset.I think you can close the issue at this time and in future you can try it yourself or some one else with promini and joystick.
Thank you very much, your package arrived to me today, and it contains ProMini and joystick also (among many other stuff), so i can do more tests. :) I am not sure if it is a reset on the ProMini, as hardware reset solves the problem, instead seems to be a lock-up.. which can be solved with a Watchdog i think. Did you use the joystick with direct connection with a 3V ProMini or it needs a Level Shifter between the two?
I used joystick directly because pro mini i always use is 3.3v version (8mhz) the one I sent you is 3.3v so no need to have level shifter. The programming board also is set on 3.3v via jumper. I do not populate 6 pins on edge of pro mini to program it but just use holes and hold it tight with ftdi adapter while loading the program and it works. For my tests I used analog pins A6 & A7 for joystick.
Thanks! I rewrite the MiniProExtender sketch, relocated the slow analogread() function from the ISR into the loop, i will test it with the joystick and let you know the results.
I think with commit https://github.com/enesbcs/rpieasy/commit/e2eebc470e29f9769c375642fae7418a3f355937 i reached end of the road. There are nothing more i can do with the original PME sketch, approximately 1hour of continous reading can be achieved maximum, before PME I2C receiver function fails, and only power cycling can fix it. So i've done a boosted sketched that can be downloaded here: https://github.com/enesbcs/ESPEasySlaves/blob/master/MiniProExtender/MiniProExtender.ino With the new sketch it is working continously for 3hours now, without error. Tested with an analog joystick (2 analog port, 1 digital, reading interval=0 all of them)
Thank you for all your efforts on this plugin. I tested it last night for few hours and it was working finefor general input output control from rpieasy. I still will be using original sketch from espeasy for my project with your original plugin from few days ago that was working fine except analog read which I do not need.My project need to control 6 digital pins on promini and I am not controlling it directly but sending extpwm commands for each 6 pins of promini via rules and at pro mini I am storing it into 7 integers (1 for pin number & 6 integers for pwm values to further process in a sketch on promini without triggering pins at pro mini. like below:
case CMD_ANALOG_WRITE: //analogWrite(port,value); triac=(port); if (port == 4) triac1 = (port); if (port == 5) triac2 = (port); if (port == 6) triac3 = (port); if (port == 7) triac4 = (port); if (port == 8) triac5 = (port); if (port == 9) triac6 = (port); dim=(value);
I tried to store values to integers from your new pro mini sketch but I was unable to do so.
At some point you can look into serial interface to pro mini instead of using I2C. I am not sure there is any code in espeasy for that.
Thanks again.
The serial plugin is also under development, i ran some multithreading related problems with that. I will try the analog_write hacking, if analog_write worked previously than this also hast to work. But your sketch in the first post will not work in this form, than it contains a delay() in the loop section, which will effectively kill the whole I2C processing.
Oh that's a good news. Thank you.
Could you send the sketch you are using, without the unnecessary portions/comments? The one that you included in the first post, has some errors with comments and something is missing, as number of "}" is not ok. The section that calculates ESPrms is commented out, isn't it necessary? This sketch is a bit cryptic to me, triac1..triac5 has no initial value as i see, but despite it, in the setup field this values used as pin numbers.. there are no way, that anything executed before setup() that assign values to them.
I am sorry I am not a programmer so I must have messed up somewhere. but following is user Costo's original sketch I am trying to use for promini:
/****\

Also for AC dimmers I wanted to use this original sketch which is below.I was trying to use input from RPIEasy and save it into integers at pro mini and then use those values to fire triacs. :
/* AC Light Control

It was a great challange to me, but now they compiles at least... https://github.com/enesbcs/ESPEasySlaves/blob/master/MiniProExtenderAC/MiniProExtenderAC.ino https://github.com/enesbcs/ESPEasySlaves/blob/master/MiniProExtenderACS/MiniProExtenderACS.ino
I tested your sketches but did not work for me so I created following sketch & used latest plugin which work perfect for me. I think finally you have resolved this issue . I watched serial console on pro mini and it is changing integer values properly. Also I was getting proper values in to rpieasy for 3 analog values from pro mini. I very much appreciate your effort. Also can you commit following sketch for future reference before I mess it up again.

/* AC Light Control
Updated by Robert Twomey rtwomey@u.washington.edu
Changed zero-crossing detection to look for RISING edge rather than falling. (originally it was only chopping the negative half of the AC wave form).
Also changed the dim_check() to turn on the Triac, leaving it on until the zero_cross_detect() turn's it off.

The hardware consists of an Triac to act as an A/C switch and an opto-isolator to give us a zero-crossing reference. The software uses two interrupts to control dimming of the light. The first is a hardware interrupt to detect the zero-cross of the AC sine wave, the second is software based and always running at 1/128 of the AC wave speed. After the zero-cross is detected the function check to make sure the proper dimming level has been reached and the light is turned on mid-wave, only providing partial current and therefore dimming our AC load.

Thank you.
I can add it, but this sketch is using the same old I2C handling, which can lead a lockup because analogread() function located are in the receiveEvent block which is an ISR function. I am afraid that after several hour it will come about.

Thank you for starting great concept. I am user of great Espeasy Software on esp8266 for long time. RPIeasy could be very useful if there is I2C bridge with arduino pro mini thereby getting rid of some limitations of RPI. Whatever RPI can not do should be done by Pro Mini.
Thanks for great start.
